It is a general rule on Linux that as much functionality as possible is
pushed to user space. Is there a specific feature needed to implement
WBEM that can only be supplied by the kernel?

Why would it need to be in the kernel ? We already handle things like DMI
table scanning almost entirely in user space (we just touch it in kernel
at boot to look for hardware signatures indicating problems)
